I don’t doubt he was rung at first, but he’s perfectly coordinated in his action as he approaches, hits and skates away from the ref. Most telling, there’s a nifty shuffle after the hit, which allows him to slip inside an approaching opponent. In other words, he was coherent enough to dodge another player less than a…

Most probably structural failure. Used aircraft + incompetent maintenance staff = ticking timebomb.

I think this is theater. Manziel wants the hell out of Cleveland, and by god, he is going to punch, drink and snort his way to freedom. Personally, I hope the Browns keep hold of him, just to see how far Johnny Relapse is willing to take this gambit.

Both of these planes are freaking gorgeous. The MiG-29 is also looker.

Missed the initial call for stories, so here’s mine.

The roadside gorilla just south of Middlebury, Vermont.

As the former owner of a Honda Odyssey minivan, I second this emotion.

“We lead the nation in drifters.”

Merkur XR4Ti is the winner. The name looks like a damn Netflix password. And the fact that it was branded under the Merkur badge that lasted just five years and yielded two cars in the US is icing on the cake.

Yup. My understanding is that Fiat went through a bunch of iterations to get the noises just right.
